Description: This is a developing base terminology for modularly specified information, organization and design technologies.
General Goals: I intend for this terminology to facilitate useful communication, coordination and collaboration in diverse social contexts without requiring potentially noisy complexity or specificity. For example, agents can use these terms to create models and reports, and to propose agreements. This terminology could also facilitate the peer-to-peer development of non-coercive standards and recipes.
Specific Goal: I will use this repository's hyperlinked descriptions to standardize terminology in my models and related documents.
Philosophical Context: This terminology supports an action, process and systems based philosophy of science and language. These human-centered terms intentionally relate mental, social and physical experiences. One of my fundamental goals here is to help facilitate more effective and consistent descriptions of such relationships. I hope to share that goal with others via distributed version control and potential creative mergers.
Notes: Some terms in MOT already have excellent technical descriptions elsewhere. I've added MOT entries for them mainly to enable responsible MOT-compatible governance (and coordination) of potential modifications of these terms.
This repository will often be edited as terms are interactively developed. Some of the fundamental terms here are especially difficult to limit and describe, and will need to be inclusively developed through open dialogue between diverse agents.
Due to this terminology's currently unstable "radioactivity", I'm not officially licensing it yet, either in whole or in part. However, I'm very receptive to potential requests for me to openly license any specific entries here!
Whenever the master branch here seems sufficiently stable and useful, I plan to put it in the public domain-- probably with CCO or a closely corresponding open license.
